Reflection Symmetry Reflection symmetry within the shape is

Reflection Symmetry Reflection symmetry within the shape is like a mirror. When you draw a line all the way through the shape, both of the sides of the line are exactly the same. A shape can have more than one line of symmetry. Reflection symmetry outside of the shape is a transformation that reflects a figure in a line, called the reflection line, creating a mirror image of the figure. It is also known as a flip.

Rotational Symmetry A figure has rotational symmetry if you can turn it 180 degrees or less and it produces an image that can fit exactly on the original image. If you turn this figure 180 degrees to the right or left, it will have rotational symmetry. Rotational symmetry outside of the shape is like the object is on a clock. It is a transformation that rotates a figure through the angle of rotation, and in a given direction about a fixed point, called the center of rotation; it is also called a turn. This shape was rotated 180 degrees.

Translation Symmetry Translation symmetry is a transformation that moves each point of a figure the same distance in the same direction. It is also known as a slide. You can also translate like this: You can slide a shape up or down, left or right.

Review. . . 1. I did not use SMART Notebook camera to create my designs with symmetry. I liked the SMART Notebook software because it had a lot of tools I could use to help me. The gallery was a lot easier than going onto Google and finding a picture or shape that I needed. 2. Technology helped me a lot with my productivity. Instead of having to draw the shape by hand, the shapes on SMART Notebook helped make my work precise and more accurate. It was also a lot faster. I really enjoyed working on SMART Notebook and using the laptop to complete this project.
